I can't help it if I talk funny
I can't express the way I feel in spoken words
Hold on
But should I stumble on the right line, honey
Be sure to tell me if it's one you haven't heard
Hold on
We hear the distant sound of a different drum
As the rhythm takes control
We speak in a sign language a secret code
In a symphony of souls
As we move to the silent music
All the people stop and stare
Dancing slow to the silent music
Silent music, in the center of the town square
I got a thousand ways to make your heart flutter
Seven kisses guaranteed to leave you weak
Hold on
When I see you on the dance floor, sugar
From every angle you're the best thing on two feet
Hold on
We got our language, a common thread
Every gesture, every sign
We got our own language that no one knows
Heart to heart in pantomime
As we move to the silent music
And we stand high in the air
Dancing slow to the silent music
Silent music, in the center of the town square
To an imaginary band in a make-believe town
We can only hear the music when we turn it down
I can't help it if I talk funny
I can't express the way I feel in spoken words
Hold on
As we move to the silent music
All the people stop and stare
Dancing slow to the silent music
Silent music everywhere
As we move to the silent music
To a force too strong to fight
Dancing slow to the silent music
Silent music, to the heartbeat of the night
Dance to the silent music everywhere
Dance to the silent music
In the middle of the town square
